A hard-rocking, high-voltage blues guitarist most often compared to Stevie Ray Vaughan, Tinsley Ellis is hardly one of the legions of imitators that comparison might imply. Schooled in a variety of Southern musical styles, Ellis draws not only from fiery Vaughan-style blues-rock, but also Texas bluesmen like Freddie King and Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown, the soulful blues of B.B. King, the funky grit of Memphis soul, and numerous other electric bluesmen. Ellis
has been praised in many quarters for the relentless, storming
intensity of his sound, and criticized in others for his relative lack
of pacing and dynamic contrast (he's also been dubbed a much stronger
guitarist than vocalist). Yet no matter which side of the fence one
falls on, it's generally acknowledged that Ellis remains a formidable instrumentalist and a genuine student of the blues.
As always, Support this artist by seeing him live and buying official stuff. !
